We have stayed at 4 other houses on Ocean Isle Loop. This property was by far the nicest and sturdiest house we have rented. The furnishings were opulent but comfortable, there was so much living space, we could get away from each other when we wanted, the kitchen was amazing and very, very well stocked with pots, pans, glasses, storage containers, wine refrigerator, ice machine, etc. Most importantly, the house contained sound from floor to floor well and the beds were so comfortable! This house walked the walk and talked the talk!

This place was fantastic. The sound of the waves, you get a view of the sunrise in the morning and the sunset on the sound side every evening from the top floor. The pool table and the pool and the hot tub are must haves. You'll love this place. Hatteras is beautiful and minutes from a great view from the top of the light house. Thanks for a great vacation.

Wonderful place. The kitchen was very well stocked with really good pots/pans/dishes and the coffee cups were huge. Its a nice hike over 2 dunes that would be a little difficult for small kids and older ones but it was not difficult for our group. The view was amazing and you could hear the waves crashing from the deck. We had a nice section of beach all to ourselves because of how the dune walkways were set up and public access is not too close which we really loved. Great house and our family really loved being there for the week.

House is very spacious and well equipped; the putting green was very popular. The biggest drawback is the somewhat "taxing" hike to the beach over two steep dunes. A basketball hoop would be a nice addition.

Great location directly on the ocean. Glad that it is NOT near a public access. Fairly long walk over two dunes to get to the beach itself (one hill is quite steep in both directions - so not good for elderly or very young).
